Yes, Apple's AirPods Pro with MagSafe are on sale for just $189.99 today. And yes, you can also score #1 best-selling Beckham Hotel Collection bed pillows with 114,000 5-star reviews for just $17.50 each. But there's one type of Amazon deal right now that's outselling everything else by a landslide.

Needless to say, we're talking about COVID rapid home tests.

Today's Top Deals

Not only does Amazon have COVID-19 at-home test kits in stock, but several best-sellers are actually discounted. They're still impossible to find in stock in most stores, so we have no idea how Amazon has COVID test kits in stock and on sale with discounts.

Take a look at Amazon's daily deals page for more great sales. You'll find thousands and thousands of incredible deals. Or, if you'd rather just skip to the very best bargains, you'll find them right here in today's big roundup.

Wednesday's best deals

Amazon's most popular daily deals on Wednesday include a massive 50% discount on Danjor Linens 1800 thread count bed sheets with 85,000 5-star reviews — they're just $19.99 right now! You'll also find a coupon you can clip to save on Amazon's #1 best-selling memory foam bath mat. It's so comfy that it has managed to rack up 37,000 5-star ratings!

As we said earlier, however, COVID rapid tests are the best-selling items on Amazon right now by a gigantic margin.

Amazon has several different COVID-19 home test kits in stock right now. They're also ready to ship out quickly. Even more surprising is the fact that 2-packs of Amazon's #1 best-selling COVID-19 rapid test are on sale with a 38% discount!

The #2 best-seller is the iHealth COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test, and 2-packs cost less than $20.

Several other COVID rapid test kits and COVID PCR tests are in stock right now at Amazon. We've rounded up all the best-sellers, so check out our earlier coverage to see them all in one place. Also, grab some 3M N95 masks or KN95 masks made in the USA while you're at it.

We'll also note that each time we order tests, they're delivered about a week faster than Amazon's shipping estimate. This could be regional since Amazon likely has more stock in some states than others. But 1-2 days after we order, we get an email stating that our tests will arrive earlier than expected.

Finally, there's one special Amazon device sale that you really need to check out.

Thanks to a crazy Amazon promotion, you can get a $25 Amazon Smart Plug for just $0.99! Use the code PLUG at checkout to get the deal, but not everyone is eligible. See the terms and conditions for more info. Also, if that deal doesn't work for you, snag some popular Amysen smart plugs with Alexa and Google instead for just $4.74 each.
